Ingredients

4 servings
  • 4 pork loin cutlets (pounded to 1/4" thick)
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs (beaten)
  • 1 ½ cup breadcrumbs (fine, not panko)
  • ½ cup vegetable oil (for frying)
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 lemon (cut into wedges)
  • 1 tsp salt and pepper

How to Make It

  1. 1

    Season pounded cutlets. Dredge in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs. Press gently to adhere.

  2. 2

    Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Fry schnitzel 3-4 minutes per side, shaking the pan occasionally so crust bubbles.

  4. 4

    Drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve immediately with lemon wedges, potato salad, and a green salad.
